30 in 30: Have a Life

Job-hunting may be a job in itself, but that doesn't mean you have to let it consume your entire life. It's tough to see the light at the end of the tunnel at times, and prowling endlessly for employment can be pretty demoralizing. But trust us: the second you land the job you want, you will forget all about the months of groveling. And, soon after you start working full time, you'll wish you'd had more fun while you had the chance! Ahh, the irony.
